    Yesterday I spent (but not on getting my watch fixed because that was going to be £180, and I could get quite a few new watches for that - which seems very environmentally rude) but on chocolate and a drink. 
    Today was NSD.

    InDebtEnby - hope you are feeling better and out of hospital <3 The angel gif suits you B)<3
    Thanks dizzyzap, I'm getting there. It's easy to spend no money when you can't go anywhere.
    @ InDebtEnby I fully understand and it's not nice in the least when NSDs are due to circumstance, rather than choice :/ My personal goal this weekend is to be able to take a nice longer walk on Saturday to a local oldie worldy sweet shop which has a Mr. Whippy ice-cream machine and buy a super large traditional plain whirly and sit outside in the park and share it with babyface daxie. She'll go absolutely fruit-loops nuts! :D:D
    **Declaring a very early NSD Thursday 19/20 - continued mainly bed rest for the next 2 days :/ but home run for the Monster gif underway! :D:D

    Sorry I've been AWOL for the last few days. Number 13 for me today please as we eek towards payday 😅

    I have a really expensive month next month as my friend turns 40. She wants to go for a spa day/ night in a hotel and we're stopping on the way there for lunch and on the way back. She is  also throwing a party which I'll need money for.I was panicking slightly about budgets to buy her a gift as she so deserves a treat but I won't have much spare after all the celebrations.  I've put it to the other ladies that we all chip in for one nice gift and we've all got her a pandora necklace for £10 contribution each & I'm really chuffed / relieved. 

    Sorry to hear people have been poorly! Sending you all lots of ❤️

    Number 17 for me today, nearly cracked at the thought of some lovely fresh white cobs I could buy from a shop today but discovered some rolls in the freezer, which were.....underwhelming. Also instead of going and buying something sweet I have eaten a tin of rice pudding. Living the dream.

    Sorry for the useless information, take care and big hugs for all those who would welcome them today from me as well x
